Anyhow...no Polgara...I did not call you Liberal...I said that the ISA should be allowed to be liberal in there actions if they deem it applicable to the situation at hand...;)...

Ok, so here's my opinion on everything..

You have all this controversy about ISA and all that.  Where's the controversy with Guilds, huh?  :o  I mean, we control things too... who else chooses the winners for these contests?  
We're artsy, stuck up and generally elistist.  So, come on people, let up on ISA for once.. Guilds can take it.  :(

Thank you and have a nice day.

For the record, this is a joke.... try to stop being so serious around here ;)

1) How this thread started is wrong. Posting emails of what people said about you in a public forum is not the proper way of handling it. If someone email me saying that I was essentially a hypocrite for implying a double standard, I would talk to them about it or just vent it out to a friend or put it in my personal blog instead of going to a public forum about it.

2)This is a chatroom, so I agree with the people that say to stop being serious. You're not the United States Military. You're not the United Nations. You're not NATO. You are chatroom moderators. So take a chill pill. And for the people that aren't ISA and are getting their panties in a bunch of over this topic, take a chill pill too. It's just a chatroom. As some have said, it's just a hobby and I would hate to see myself act like how people are acting in this thread when it comes to my hobby of card collecting.

"Oh my god! That guy ripped me off in this trade and then has the nerve to email me that I'm a hypocrite for going after substandard players because they happen to play for my favorite team when I have stated on several occasion that I only go after the stars! I better go on Beckett.com and tell everyone how this guy ripped me off. And also to remind everyone that card collecting is a serious thing and how much stress it puts on us."

Seriously, just calm down and have some fun, that's what this place is for. If you're at the point where you're not having fun and this place effect you in real life, then find something else to have fun. No one should be getting their panties in a bunch over a place that was created to have fun and make friends.

Balco,

I did not appreciate the Tony blaire= Me comment...;)...nice thought though...LOL...

anyhow...it is all well and good saying "this is OTF...this is not real...this is only a chat site"...but name another chat site this big, where hundreds of actual members...not an admin tema being paid...but members...give 75% of the work needed for it to opperate...???...and thus...there is going to be a lot of people involved...because...people feel they have a right to complain...due ot the fact that is the fellow chatters running the show...

that is why it get's so political...;)

Maybe it's just me and my odd perception of reality and this doesn't need saying, but...

Zild isn't the head of OTF. He's the head of a Department. Like Eagle, QD, and a few others. He's no more in charge than any of these others, and yet he's the one who seems to be getting the most abuse.

ISA is in charge of keeping the peace in the chatrooms. We're not in charge of the chatrooms. If you want to see a change in the way OTF is run in general, then Zild isn't the man to take it up with...

Just pointing that out. :?

Another thing is: corruption. People keep saying the ISA's corrupt. Think about it: We don't get paid for anything. We don't get bribed. We just do a job, in a chatroom, because for one reason or another we enjoy it. Where do you see room for corruption there? :? I mean... how? :?

I'm going to write a response at some point or another.  I've sat at a desk all day, though.  Desks and chairs and computers will give me nightmares one day.  


Some woman wanted me to stay half an hour after I was scheduled to go home to make sure she got an email from our department so she wouldn't be billed for equipment she never used.  Never once did she realize that I have a life outside of my job. =-(

And for all those who think I hate ISA, sometimes, if you really respect something, you are harder on it than all other departments.  Where are the people who sing, "Yay!  We're the best department because we generate threads like this!"?

When we worked with juvenile delinquents, we knew we reached excellentness when we became the most hated, the most feared....and of course, the most respected.  

I like being the weirdo, left-winged, grassroots liberal who stirs up trouble, pushes people's buttons, and never loses the ability to shock the masses.  Maybe in real life, I'm the shy goody-two-shoes type, but online, I can be something quite different.

And how did politics get involved?  Because...ummm....the outpost isn't real.  Comparing it to the context of history at least gives you something to use in real life. And debating is a skill and an artform.  Learn it.  Master it.  It will take you far in life.

And Zild, I'm taking that as a compliment....but then again, ISA officers have always told me that I see things exactly the way I want to see them, and if you talked to those ISA officers, they'd tell you that.  And Duh....FBI TOTALLY outranks ISA.  :P

Perhaps in my old age I am not as patient as I used to be but my personal opinion on this is that ISA has a job to do.  We do the job because we want to contribute to the well being of OTF.  It's not an easy job.  I know very well having done it for 3 years now.  We get the hate mail, the threats the arguments and very very rarely do we get any words of encouragement or a simple thank you.  The ones that go on about corruption in ISA blah blah blah are the ones that generally have some resentment that they were never invited and that says to them that you just aren't cut out for the job.  And they are right.  They aren't cut out for the job and their attitude is why.  So for those that honestly think ISA doesn't do the job and do it well and within the defined protocols e-mail Zildjian or CT or Hong with verifiable proof.  Otherwise shush up until you can show proof that your made up beliefs have a basis in truth other than in your own mind.

Corrupt? that's a new one, I've been called hard arsed, Uncaring, unfeeling, unfair (not sure how that happened but eh.) I've been called just about every name in the book. and, for the first couple years of my ISA service it may have bugged me. But, not so much anymore.


I didn't join ISA to be popular, or to make friends. frankly because when I joined ISA I was new enough to not have a large group of friends, but the ones that I did have stuck by me. and I can still count the ones I've not lost contact with as my friends.

I also found out that. there are people who will judge you based solely on the fact that you are ISA. and those people, Not Us. are the ones that need to take stock of themselves, figure out where this prejudice comes from and then if they have a real problem, that can be proved. as Kyp said, Send an email to Zild or Hong or Tex. but. shunning your friends because they joined ISA? that's childish, hurtfull and shows a complete lack of Maturity.
and I for one have no tolerance for a lack of maturity like that, so If you've stopped talking to someone because they joined ISA, do me a favour and stop talking to me as well.

Simply because I'm here, I don't intend on Quitting ISA and I will uphold the Prime directives to the best of my ability. NOT because I'm on a power trip, or corrupt. But because I believe in OTF and the Prime directives.

I had two responses from OTF populace when I joined ISA and both of them made me want to quit shortly after I started.

1. "OH MY GOODNESS THE OUTPOST IS DOOOMED! RUN RUN!  FLEE FOR YOUR LIVES!"

Thanks for the vote of confidence.

2. "Polson sold out? Shame.  I never thought SHE of all people."

Thanks for the support and friendship and understanding.

Hoooooooookay!!!!

Of course I have to leave my mark on this thread! :k

First and foremost, congrats to XZ on making ISA, something most of you should have said to begin with. ;) If you can make changes from within you have my full support... which is like 3 buttons and a safety pin.

Everyone is well aware I'm not flying any ISA banners, but I have to agree with what many have said, "They are here to do a job" and they get it done. I for one would love the opportunity that XZ has been given, a supposed 'lamer' on the inside, seeing how things work and proposing changes... instead of complaining about the outcomes. If by some coincidence I got the same chance... and someone had the lack of common sence to inform me of my 'selling out' I'd take it in stride, something I've gotten very good at. If this person was someone who was considered a friend... they'ed get removed from that list, end of story and go on with you life.

I thought about doing a recap on this topic... but work saps my chi and I'm not motivated enough. Therefore, in closing... Kudos again XZ, and to everyone else... "Don't start nuttin' won't be nuttin'" Give the ISA room to do their job and no one need get shot!!

I've got a list of a few things that it's definitely time to end.

Like James Bond movies?  What the heck?  Has anyone else noticed that they've been making the same movie for the past four decades?  

It's also time to end the ridiculous prices on the Original Series box sets.  I like Star Trek a lot, but definitely not to the point that I want to drop $120 on one of the seasons.  Especially season 3.  If you buy the first two seasons then you should get proofs of purchase that you can mail in to get the 3rd season for free, and Paramount will be glad to get the surplus box sets out of their inventory.

We also need to put an end to violets on television.  There are far too many violets on tv, and I for one think it's time we stop being subjected to their flowery tyranny!

Oh, and while we're at it why don't we put an end to letting George Lucas make movies?  I think Howard the Duck, both Ewok movies, Episodes I-III (minus the scenes where Yoda busts out his lightsaber), and the "enhancements" to the original trilogy (Han shot first!;) are more than enough proof that he should stick to making special effects and leave the scripting to anyone else.

And can we end the new "special edition" re-release of Lord of the Rings?  For shame, Peter Jackson and New Line, you're no better than George Lucas when you do those things.

What do you think it's time to end?

They got an emo feel to them.<br><br>I agree to putting an end to letting Lucas make movies. Should've called up Speilburg and had him do the prequels. <br><br>I think we should just end "special edition" releases period. They're just a cheap marketing ploy because it seems like EVERY movie that comes out in DVD is "special edition" not really that special when you think about it. <br><br>As for me, I think it's time for these athletes that get busted doing steriods and stuff and try to weasel out of it, come to an end. It's time for them to come out and be flat out honest about it. <br><br>And facing, that definitely needs to come to and end. If anyone has ever had to face all the aisle in a grocery store (ie, moving 2 things to the front), then you have my full sympathy.

Anyone who dislikes a person cos of them joining a particular department, especially when they were friends before, is a twit.  I don't dislike anyone simply because they are in ISA. I do happen to dislike some people in ISA, but then I'm sure I dislike some people from other departments too . . *shrugs* life's like that, you can't like everyone. But to use the department they're in as the basis for dislike?

That, that's . . departmentist! :?
